ART Design Build was delighted yet again to be the belle of the ball at the 2011 Contractor of the Year awards banquet held on January 29 at the W Hotel in Alexandria. Walking away with seven awards confirms that ART Design Build is a SUPERbuilder and the go-to contractor in the Bethesda and DC metro area. Award winning design and execution is the standard at ART Design.

Good thing we are expert builders, as we will need to add an addition to the office just to accommodate them all!

A.R.T. Design Build is featured in Bethesda Magazine’s September/October issue for our “Igloo” project – our most eco-friendly build yet. We were approached to turn plans for a guest house into a truly sustainable space. Designed to use natural heating sources, the space will cost 50 to 60 percent less to heat and cool than a conventional home. See the building process from beginning to end here at our Igloo Blog.

A.R.T. Design Build congratulates Julia Farr on her boutique’s Grand Opening on September 30. The wardrobe consultation and design company celebrated its new showroom in Friendship Heights.

A.R.T. Design Build helped construct the space to fit the needs of this chic boutique. For more information about Julia Farr, click here. To see the build, visit 5232 44th Street, NW in Washington D.C.

In the tradition of great fashion that the Friendship Heights area has become known for, ART Design proudly completes a fabulous fit-out for Julia Farr DC, an exclusive women’s boutique. Stay tuned for a grand opening announcement.

Since 1993 The Chrysalis Awards have honored the finest remodeling projects in the country. Their goal, as stated on their site, “…is to provide consumers, remodelers, designers, architects and editors with a resource for remodeling ideas and to identify those companies that produce award-winning work.”

ART Design Build was certified as a company by the EPA on March 2, 2010. Under the rule, beginning in April 2010, contractors performing renovation, repair and painting projects that disturb lead-based paint in homes, child care facilities, and schools built before 1978 must be certified and must follow specific work practices to prevent lead contamination.

All ART project managers are individually trained and certified to practice Lead Safe practices in the field.

Please join your neighbors for a reception and open house showcasing A.R.T Design Build’s latest whole house remodel. This will be happening on Sunday May 16th, between 1 – 4 PM at 4624 Langdrum Lane Chevy Chase, MD 20815.
